Division of Arts & Culture is focused on bringing alternative rhythmic sounds to Springfield Avenue, while at the same time providing safe, outdoor entertainment to the community.

September 25th we’ll hear the ritmos of Afro Puertorrican BOMBA Y PLENA!! I dare you not to dance!

Cimarrones is one of the most sought after bomba and plena ensembles in New Jersey. Cimarrones has performed and instructed in very diverse venues. One of the reasons that Cimarrones is so well sought out is their ability to engage the audience, create high energy and educate them at the same time. Cimarrones released its first CD Viejos Tiempos in April of 2009.  The CD is a compilation of traditional Bomba, Colombian Bullerengue songs interpreted in bomba and fusion with Hip Hop and Reggaeton. Our audiences are expected to participate either by playing an instrument, singing, or dancing which is the essence of Bomba.
